What makes you say that? Are there any facts or data behind it?
It kinda makes sense that dementia is one of the big illnesses of our time. People are living longer, and diagnoses are getting better, so of course the numbers are going up. We also have to remember that a few years back, it was a pretty overlooked condition, so there weren’t many records to compare with. Maybe there are some genetic reasons behind it too, but I’ve heard that keeping your brain active with reading and games can really help reduce the effects of the disease.
I’m afraid I don’t have hard evidence
Just anecdotally. Many of my friends’ parents are afflicted with dementia.
Ya I heard that doing Sukoku puzzles will help keep our brain active
